Now that Google has put out the color mode changes, we need a quick settings toggle for it.
A saturation scale would be great too.
I'd like to be able to set something up like boosted but slightly warmer.

Use a custom kernel (i.e. Snokes) that allows for this control. Then you can use a kernel management app to fine tune the display. I use EX Kernel Manager
Shouldn't need a custom ROM for something so simple.

^ This, plus it takes less than 5 minutes. Flash Kernel, Magisk root, install app, change settings. If you absolutely desire such a feature baked into the stock ROM then I recommend purchasing a Samsung device, or some other OEM device that has said feature. Complaining about it here and shooting down methods to achieve exactly what you want will not make Google provide this feature to the Pixel devices.

It already is included in the rom. Under display. Natural, enhanced, and saturated. I believe what he is asking about is making it a quick setting. Which you likely already can do with app that adds customizable shortcuts to available tiles in quick settings.

I am wondering if anyone knows what mods to use on stock rooted firmware to allow changing the battery icon and mod the clock for color, position etc. These are really the only changes I make to a phone after installing a custom rom. I also like the fact that custom roms have the bloatware removed. I can live with out using a custom rom if I can make the simple changes like. Thanks.

Looking for an app/tweak/hack/kernel tuner/xposed module or whatever to adjust display colors. Franco's Color Controls only seem to adjust the high mids, and I need more control over mid-range and the tints of the gray-scale range.
Specifically, my display is orange-tinted from the low-mids to the mid-highlights. I need to make grays more neutral any color in the midrange less orange.
Disregard this comment.

I'm so confused... I have Busybox and Trinity Kernel installed as well as purchased the trinity kernel tuner, and the color settings aren't listed under "tunables" like it shows on the play store. Also the Trickster Mod kernel tuner doesn't list color options. Neither Trickster nor Trinity tuners list color options on Franco Kernel or Trinity Kernel.
What do I have to do in order to tweak the colors? This yellow-tinted display is messing with my eyes :/

You sure? I was using Franco Kernel and bought his FKU and it doesn't seem to have any profiles. It does have minimal and incredibly confusing settings to adjust gamma, but there's no explanation of what the settings do or how to use them, and from my trial and error it seems the settings only adjust the brightest color ranges (highlights and mid-highs). I made a thread about it. I'm very interested in finding a way to fix my displays colors...
EDIT: ok so I just found an app by Franco called Nexus Display Control. Will report back if it helps with my situation.

There are literally no profiles to load. Furthermore, that Nexus Display Control app is literally just Color Control module from FKU, which itself is only some miscelaneous gamma settings — far from full color control like it shows in the play store...
Is something wrong with my device? Am I doing something wrong? There's so much more to color control (as demonstrated by Franco's own pictures for his app in the play store) than a mere few gamma settings, so what gives? As I pointed out in the thread I made for FKU's color control, the negative and positive settings both seem to do exactly the same thing, and none of them affect anything besides highlights and high mids. I've been working on this since yesterday with the slowest internet connection of all time, I'm pulling my hair out trying to get to the bottom of this...

You're exactly right! I thought that was the description of the popup, I never would have thought it was a button, wow... Thanks!
Ok so I guess what it comes down to is whether you (or anyone) knows how to access the rest of the color controls other than the miscellaneous gamma controls? For example, as depicted in the play store?

Ok well thank you! Vomer_balanced seems to have neutralized my display quite nicely, but I'll probably play around quite a bit over the next few days. Hopefully others will contribute to the thread I made so we can make sense of the controls, and it would be really nice if someone found out how to access the rest of the color controls like it shows in the play store.
Again, thanks!
Is there a way I can change minimum brightness of my phone without using an app that must run in the background all the time?

To your question OP, Im pretty sure you can only go as dull as your display panel supports. Now I would presume the ROM you are running would be optimized to allow to go to its minimum brightness but if it wasn't then maybe you'd be able to edit it manually

I've known ES Task Manager's screen adjustment menu to allow a slightly higher and lower brightness than is allowed by default.
It also doesn't have to be running in the background to work.

If you are on stock AOSP and you have xposed you can install gravitybox, which will allow lowering of brightness levels.

I believe those are all screen tinting apps that must run in the background thank you though.
Sorry that none of the suggestions worked for you...
Just out of curiosity, what is your reason for not wanting a background app? I personally don't like them myself, but mainly because they have a constant icon on the notification bar (some apps let you make that transparent but it still blocks a spot up there)
I tried out the Screen Filter Xposed Module which TimeAndroid suggested and there is no icon on the status bar, nor is there any app running in the 'Recent apps' if you try and close open apps. There is a slider if you pull down the status bar which I actually find convenient.

I would like to lower my minimum brightness to make it easier on the eyes at night and improve battery life when I don't need the screen so bright. If the app is running in the background, it is counterproductive I believe since the app will decrease your battery life.

I really doubt the background app for this, is causing any battery life loss to make any impact whatsoever. Any savings in battery life from a dimmed screen would make up for it, many many times over.

Hi
So I checked with the developer of Screen Filter in this thread here and he has confirmed it does not run in the background. He has provided details to show that battery is not consumed by using this module. While the filter will give ease to the eyes, it will only save battery if you have an AMOLED screen and not an LCD screen.
You can check out post #179. Hope this helps!
After getting a bit angry about Motorola's decision to not to enable and allow people to access the multiuser mode, I've decided to customize the framework and touch some more things. Don't hesitate to suggest any other modifications that you'd like me to do.
WARNING: This is ONLY for stock ROM.
Features:
- Decreased the minimum brightness from 5 to 1.
- Decreased the dimming brightness from 10 to 5.
- Enabled multiuser support.
- Set multiuser limit from 1 to 4.
- Allowed all rotations.
- Disabled the annoying "turn on screen if unplugged from charger".
How to install?
- Download from attached files.
- Transfer to device.
- Flash in recovery.

Hihihihi, it isn't framework-related. This is just a trigger based behavior placed in the sysfs.
Just take a look to this app: Moto LED for Moto X & E [Root] (it works with our devices too).
oho..ok i know theres an app but i was wondering why they have built a led light and has not given any options or made it work.. ok..

Quick question,
Are these features already available on stock Lineage OS for G4 Play (which squid is developing)?
If no, it would be very great if Lineage OS has these features. Maybe OP can contribute(patch?) to Lineage OS?

That's the ying and Yang of Google. BY default they offer little in customisation but then they also make it easy to root your phone and add custom mods. Samsung are the opposite, they offer loads of customisation but it's a pia to root

Just an FYI, but it seems that if you use the systemless hosts module, then you cannot use that Fullscreen module by DanGLES3. This is because it prevents your apps that require root access from seeing that they have root access. Basically, it messes up your superuser permissions and screws with the Magisk pathways. I was trying to check what it did, however, I cannot explore any root directories due to my file explorer's superuser permissions now being ignored lol.
So, while this option works great and doesn't require LSposed, it prevents you from doing anything else with your root access =(.
The only way to resolve the problems is by wiping your phone, re-imaging and starting over =P.

Which is all very good i am sure but what purpose does the gesture line actually serve, why is it even there to start with is the question and not well it is easy to root your phone crack on and sort it yourself. Googles logic of it being there is baffling.
Lets be honest Google are now pushing the Pixel as a mainstream phone and it is probably bought mainly on the strength of its photographic capabilities, It isn't just the plaything of the inquisitive like the Nexus was. I bet the amount of Pixels that get rooted compared to sold is miniscule.

I would say that's true and has always been true of every phone. Otherwise, there would be millions and millions of XDA members. The Modding community is a microcosm of overall phone owners
But, why not have the pill? What is the argument against it?
